We Pause Briefly to Bash the Chargers

Rams 20, Chargers 17. I am a Ram fan from way back, and sit in my Jack Youngblood jersey as I type this.

So HAH! San Diego has never beaten the Rams. Ever.

Oh and those of you scratching your head on how the Chargers could lose to a team that was 1-15 last year, and lost 44-6 to Detroit last week? Here's why. The Chargers cannot win on the road, and aren't as good as their rankings. They aren't losing to inferior teams anymore - they are losing to teams as good as they are.

Harsh? Yep. But consider:

Lose once to a bad team (KC) it's a fluke.

Twice (SEA) it's coincidence.

Thrice (OAK) it's a trend.

Four times (STL) you are what you are.

No one will confuse those four teams with Super Bowl contenders. The Chargers shouldn't be considered a contender either.
